95 Avalon XLS 17" Wheels

[toyota26]

Hi, I have a 1995 Avalon XLS Auto, I want to get new wheels for it, Im thinking just some 17's.

Im looking at getting some Used Mistu Lancer Evolution Enkei Wheels. There 17x8 and have 245/45R17 sized tires. Im wondering what offset i'll need to run to use these wheels.

Im also looking at Stock IS300 17" Wheels if the guy with the stock Lancer Evolution wheels fall through.

I have the sock IS300 wheels. They need to have a spacer in the rear if you want to run anything larger than a 215/50, and those will be tight.

No advice on the Mitsu wheels.

IMO, I think that different auto makers wheels on another car i.e. Camry Solara wheels on a Ford FreeStar just are not cool. Now, if they make the certain brand i.e. Scion tC wheels on Corolla or Subaru Legacy wheels on Camry look good, and not to, to, Uhh, dang. Whats the word that I'm looking for?

This is not my car, but I have an exact clone. This is what sold me on the IS wheels.

oh and 02AspenGreen. the evo wheels are enkei. they don't say mitsubishi or anything thing on them. they even have a enkei centercap.

hey sloopercat how much did you pay for your is300 wheels? with or with out tires. and do you have any pictures?

[sloopercat]

My car is an exact clone, I even bought the spoiler too. That pic was my background also. I don't have any pics posted on the net. I got the wheels off E-bay, they were takeoffs with no blems, I don't recall exactly, maybe $450? I bought the tires seperately.

You should really get the proper IS300 lugs, the Avalon lugs fit, but the outer acorn is twice as long and looks kind of dorky, IMHO.

haha, thats awesome. you have tint and all too? what kind of wing is that..? i wonder what the clone would look like with the metalic aquaish color my car is haha

[sloopercat]

No tint, not my style. I can't remember the wing brand, got it painted for $250 or so.
